There is only one English format that you can generate with "texexec
--make en". If you're speaking about how to generate only that one
with first-setup.sh, then you should be, at least in theory, able to
generate only the chosen formats with --formats switch or my modifying
the lua file that gets generated, but I imagine that it doesn't work
or at least I have never tested it so far.

Yes, it only downloads the modified files, but it doesn't use
checksums since using them is much slower. You could add an additional
-c switch, but you will not notice any difference (apart from a few
files that Hans recreates every time when he uploads a new zip, but
that's neglectable). Rsync checks for date+size. Only if these two are
different it fetches the file. You could add checksum checking, but I
guess that you don't gain anything.

The only critical component where I really do need to change this are
luatex and metapost source, but this only concerns binary builders,
not users.
